Lederer Back in Action

Thursday, 11 October 2012

Howard Lederer stepped out of the shadows recently, but it seems he’s walked straight into the firing line.

After speaking with various media outlets about his time at Full Tilt, it appears Howard believes a metaphorical weight has been lifted from his shoulders as he’s decided the time is right to return to the felt.

Over the last few days Howard has been spotted at the Bellagio and Aria high limit rooms, trading pleasantries and chips with some of the game’s regulars such as Huck Seed and David Oppenheim.

While those in the game seemed pleased to see him, many members of the community are incensed that he’s been able to stroll back into the game without much being said.

Indeed, according to a thread on 2+2, there have been a number of phone calls from irate ex-Full Tilt players threatening to kill Howard. The casino stepped-up its security around the high stakes poker area, but it seems that many people aren’t willing to live by the old mantra of “forgive and forget”.
